[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Get a liberal arts degree (economics and something soft) from the highest ranked school you can[/b]. Recruiting for finance, consulting, and corporate /strategy roles are much much easier if you are in English and economics major coming from Rice or Vanderbilt or Emory compared to CS at Purdue….. Ask around people!!![/quote] Unless you have good connections/networking, that will not help. DS will graduate from an Ivy, commencement is today, and he is still looking for for a job, as most of his friends who don't have connections. Those with connections have good jobs. [/quote] Did your kid and his friends all graduate with low GPAs at the bottom of their class? No internships? Blacklisted by the campus career center?? You’re leaving something out…[/quote]
